about

The title track of the E.P. and also the climax of the story as the treeswage war against the Sun. The Sun dies and all the Trees burn as night falls.

lyrics

/chorus
The Sun gave light to the earth
And trees grew like spears they scratch the clouds
Piercing up at the source of their own life
Night seeps into an endless bleeding sky

The sun sank
Shame on me
/chorus

Soldier pines that march to war
Never could settle the score
Pitied by the father star

Why can't we atone

/chorus/

As the Sun is laid low
The trees have nothing to help them grow
and with his dying breath he said

"Child I loved you all the same"

/chorus/

I follow The Way of Ashes
